Runaway

On a long, aimless summer day, Jeremy and Auden find that their secret fort has been breached. Inside they discover a ragged young girl, holding a serrated kitchen knife. Rhonda Peach is a runaway, and as the two boys befriend her and spend more time with her, the stories she weaves - and the lies she tells - begin to shake their naive, fragile world. Then, when Auden and Rhonda go missing, Jeremy begins a search that quickly unravels into a surreal nightmare.
